More about First Gold:
First Gold hops were developed in the United Kingdom and are a product of the Wye College breeding program. They are a cross between WGV (Whitbread Golding Variety) and a dwarf male hop. This combination was specifically designed to create a hop variety that retains the desirable characteristics of traditional English hops while being suitable for cultivation in smaller, more compact growing spaces. The result is First Gold, a hop that offers a rich blend of earthy, floral, and citrus notes, making it a versatile choice for brewers.
